A taste of Fifty Shades of Grey.

E.L. James has singlehandedly sparked a sexual revolution with her Fifty Shades of Grey series. The books are hot, hot, hot! They continue to dominate Best Seller lists, sending couples running out to stock up on S&M gear and gray ties. (Who can blame them?) And Etsyis a buzz with 50 Shades gear. (Bondage charms anyone?) Did you know there’s even a Fifty Shades soundtrack ? And since I first wrote this post when the books were first hitting the charts, a line of Fifty Shades wine have even hit shelves.

I am waited with baited breath to see Mr. Christian Grey and Miss Steele on the big screen next February. (Though I have to say I’m a little bummed that Charlie Hunnam backed out. He’s smoking!)

The books have inspired book clubs, specialty vacations… what’s next? Wine clubs? Hey, I’m game. There’s quite a list of beverages in book series. Mr. Grey spares no expense in the wining and dining department. I decided to put together a convenient (and almost comprehensive) little list so you can host your own Fifty Shades tasting. (I’m waiting on my invitation!)
